A six club veteran with more than 250 first grade matches under his belt, Blake’s experience was of enormous value to the Warriors in 1995, where he impressed with his pace and try scoring ability. He has the versatility to play in any back line position, but surprised even himself with some great early season performances at hooker in 1996. One of the most gifted players to never play for Australia, Blake was a State of Origin representative in 1989.
